America is the ONLY wealthy nation not providing universal healthcare think Jun 2016 #7

How is not endorsing Hillary helping that? That's what I'm asking. Tactically, what is this about? YouDig Jun 2016 #10

Ya know, it really is odd that somebody would bring up universal healthcare about Hillary tonyt53 Jun 2016 #27

Ironic right? Why the GOP hate her so much, the reason for Whitewhater and Benghazi and Emails and YouDig Jun 2016 #31

Thank you so much GulfCoast66 Jun 2016 #62

Universal public healthcare. Warren Stupidity Jun 2016 #11

All great stuff Demsrule86 Jun 2016 #13

Sure. But that is true for any dem candidate. Warren Stupidity Jun 2016 #16

But voting results indicate otherwise. Check out Bernie's preferences from last nigh. tonyt53 Jun 2016 #29

Down ticket ballots won't matter if the GOP wins the presidency... Demsrule86 Jun 2016 #61

How does contesting the convention help bring that stuff about. YouDig Jun 2016 #22

No amount of TELLING you has sunk in, has it. I'll tell you a little off the top of my head. ancianita Jun 2016 #23

Thank you. Specifics. What I was asking for. YouDig Jun 2016 #24

Now we can talk. "Progressive" is concretely laid out at either ontheissues.org or berniesanders.com ancianita Jun 2016 #26

They don't want to 'talk' HumanityExperiment Jun 2016 #28

Not really, there are always gradations of this stuff. YouDig Jun 2016 #30

Too bad what? Do you think Trump becoming president is some kind of revenge for Bernie? YouDig Jun 2016 #50

Too bad "That still doesn't change what I think of Bernie." You need to thank Bernie for ancianita Jun 2016 #52
